I wouldn't either after this afternoon. I stuck it back in there and
it began to seep coolant around the bottom of the plug. Then, the
sucker wouldn't come out so I had to drill a hole in it and pull with
a piece of stiff wire.
Four out of four auto parts houses in Chapel Hill were either out of
stock or didn't carry 1-5/8" disk type freeze plug. I'll go get one
in Siler City tomorrow.
What are the expert opinions on whether to use sealant or not and
what type?
